"Mounting" a free-floating xenia stalk

Recommended Posts

I have a xenia stalk that has come lose and is in very low flow in my sump right now. What is a quick way to get it to attach to some rock? I was going to move two pieces of rubble and gently pinch the stalk between the stones until it sticks to one or the other but that will take some time.

Will it hold up to super glue gel you think?

Depending on the rock type you have I find it is usually pretty easy to wedge it into a hole and pin it in place with a toothpick if needed. The rubberband method works well to. Either way the xenia will more than likely attach in a few hours and then start moving.

One word of caution. Xenia is a big time weed and will spread like crazy especially if your tank has nutrients and good lighting.
